What's going on?

In an action packed, double-whammy, triple X,
late-night-double-feature-picture-show special, we bring you the
results of the final hat of the week of 2010, AND, the results of
hat of the year. We're just so good to you.

The final hat of the week saw The Knitter up against The Biggest
Little Christmas Tree. Despite its ultimate bling, volume,
incredible craft, and fake plastic finger nail, the Tree was pipped
to the post by The Knitter. Commended for the genius of the
creation, the limitless patience the knitter of The Knitter must
have had, and for being an all-round icon of what the Big Knit is
all about. Huge congratulations go to Jackie Cryer for her
exquisite creation.

Next up, the winner of the hat of the year. Having seen so many
hats, we brought four of our favourites together in one place. The
competition showed Robin Balboa's defeat of Hairy Claus, and The
Last Unicorn beat Binface through to the finals (despite Binface's
snazzy sunglasses). The final round was always set to be fierce,
but there could only be one winner to take the titluar crown of
"hat of all hats". Despite an intense race towards the end of
today, at time of going to press, the Unicorn was in the lead with
1656 votes, a mere 28 votes ahead of the Robin. And here he is
again, in all his golden horned glory.

Congratulations to Susan Smith for her prize-winning
Unicorn.

And there ends the competing hats for 2010. We've seen peas in
pods, viking hats fight bears with scarves, a dangley competition,
the funky chicken take on a flock of hens (and loose), hat gang
wars, a robot hat going against a squid, a mythical battle of a
frog prince against a unicorn, an egg and spoon race against the
owl and the pussycat, a halloween special, a rafter fighting a
pokemon, a common cork hat beating royalty, and a beard off. It's
been immense, it's been tense, and it's been a whole lot of
hats.

Until next year...
